A Pastor In Manchester. - We are
pleased to report that our parish in this
place has settled pastor. Br. W. M.
Backus, who was recently announced as
coming into our ministry from the Iowa
Methodist Conference, under the encour-
agement of Rev. w. A. Pratt, OF Cedar
Rapids, was heard in Manchester on
Aug. IA, and Immediately engaged. Br.
Backus is young man, who has not
preached Methodist doctrine long enough
to spoil him. He begins his Manchester
work in good earnest, and with bis Uni
versalist wife, will, no doubt, do good
work among that people. We shall
esteem it privilege to record his pros
perity and that of our old friends in
Manchester. The church here is in fine
condition. 1t has membership of about
| $50, and is the most hourishing society
in the place. 1t also has an excellent
